Howdy, I have been working on a cvsup/buildworld "helper" document located at: http://www.hiltonbsd.com/articles/buildworld.php And could sure use some review from you hackers :-) One of the areas that concerns me most is the instructions regarding "adopting" your current src version, before cvsup updating to -STABLE. http://www.hiltonbsd.com/articles/buildworld.php#ADOPT Is this step still necessary?, or have advances in the cvsup software made this point moot? And if "adopting" is a necessary step for correct deletions of stale files, are my instructions correct and clear? This is geared towards newer users of cvsup/buildworld, and especially the "broadband-less" users, myself included. Downloading a complete src set over 56k modem is not a joyfull thing.
